Condition & Value
Condition Grade
Near Mint (CGC 9.4)
Condition Details
Minor gloss scuffing/shelf wear likely due to thin promotional paper stock. Appears to have slightly blunted top corners. No major spine ticks or color breaks visible through the bag.
Estimated Market Value
Raw: $3.00 - $8.00; Graded: High grading unlikely for ROI; estimated value $40.00- $60.00 for a 9.8 simply due to slab costs.
Recent Sales
As a promotional 'Batman Day' giveaway, these typically sell for very low premiums unless containing a high-demand first appearance. Similar DC samplers sell for approximately $5.00 on secondary markets.
Grading Recommendation
Not recommended for professional grading. The cost of shipping and grading fees far exceeds the market value of a promotional sampler.

Authentication Notes
Consistent with authentic DC promotional materials. Modern glossy paper stock and high-resolution digital printing in line with current DC manufacturing standards.
